Proconnect Depreciation Calculation

FloresCPATax

Does anybody know how Proconnect calculates Depreciation Basis?
I have a Home Office calculation: Cost: $275,000

Business Use: 20%

Salvage/Basis Reduction (assume land): 41,250 (15%)

Prior Dep: $794, s/l, 39 year life Rate .02658 

And then Depreciation Basis: $13,750 and Curr Depr $344.  

Where does the $13,750 come from? 

Why isn't the Dep Basis: $46,750? ($275,000 - 15% x 20%)  and Current Yr Dep: $1,199?

I think you are entering it incorrectly.

It is taking $275,000 x 20%.  Then subtracting $41,250.

But I don't use ProConnect so I'm unsure what the correct way to enter it would be.

My guess is input is wrong. The process is confusing in this software and easy to screw up.
